Venues

[arysteia.livejournal.com]

You all managed with reasonable ease last year, but to the small few who rejoin us this year after an absence we have a new main venue. It's a short bus ride from Kilbirnie, so while Brentwoodians will no longer be right next door, you're still at the best available accommodation, and will have no difficulties finding your way.

The main venue itself:

Saint Christopher's Hall, Seatoun
Corner of Ventnor and Forres Streets

There's a beautiful old church to the right, sadly yellow stickered, and a hall to the left. You want the hall! There's a fair amount of parking in the street outside for drivers.



From Kilbirnie, for Brentwoodians, the bus you want is the Number 11 (Seatoun). Get on at the stop outside Kilbirnie Sports on Rongotai Road (which you should be familiar with; it's the main intersection with Bay Road, but see the second map if you need a refresher) and get out at the cafe/shops on Dundas Street. Ventnor Street is just round the corner, see map below. For anyone coming from town the important thing to remember is that the 11 does not pass through Courtenay Place, and you need to get on in Taranaki Street.
